What if your body started surprising you — over and over again — with symptoms you couldn’t explain?  And what if you sought medical help, only to be told that nothing was really going on in your body and it was all in your head?  This was Steph’s experience as chronic illness manifested in her 30’s and radically changed the shape of her life.  In this episode, Steph and I talk about the difference between pain and suffering, the mind shift that brought her acceptance and peace, and what it meant to finally get a medical diagnosis after 6 years in the wilderness of not-knowing.

In this episode, we’re talking with my friend and colleague in ministry, Jen Crow, about the house fire that turned her family’s life upside down in 2016. Though everyone got out of the house safely, the experience changed Jen, her wife Loretta, and their two children in deep ways.  Join us for this conversation about resilience, loss, and the true nature of safety and comfort.
